David Arquette Checks Out of Rehab

By PopEater Staff Posted Jan 30th 2011 06:42PM

Nearly one month after entering himself into a rehab facility to treat problems with "alcohol and other issues," David Arquette has checked himself out.

Arquette completed his treatment on Sunday. "He has competed his treatment and has left," his rep tells PEOPLE. Another source told PEOPLE that Arquette is "in great spirits. He's feeling good and he's ready to move forward."

Arquette had checked into rehab at the beginning of January. The actor moved into a live-in rehab facility to address an alcohol problem following a New Year's Eve party at Arquette & Beacher's Madhouse Theater, located at the Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles. According to its website, the venue features a "Flying Midget bartender" and had the "atmosphere of a circus."

A source close to Arquette told TMZ at the time that he was seeking help because it was "the right thing to do for his family." PEOPLE quoted another insider who confirms the star entered rehab for "drinking and depression, not hard drugs."

Courteney Cox came out in support of her estranged husband after his decision. "I really admire David and his choice to take charge and better his life," the actress told PEOPLE earlier this month. "I love and support him."

Arquette checked himself into an unidentified facility over the holiday weekend following months of erratic behavior that included several revealing conversations with friend and shock jock Howard Stern. Many of the revelations to Stern included intimate details of his love life -- or lack of a love life -- with Cox.

I wish you would get hit by a truck, David. You are a goofy-looking guy with no talent who married up, then drove your stylish wife to boredom by your infantile behavior. You've used up all the good luck you are entitled to.

One month and he's all cured??? Yeah right.
How long before he checks back in??

By The Ger

That is exactly what I was thinking! Only one month and he's all cured? Baloney! Like the warden said to his secretary when she asked where to put his file. Keep it handy he said, he'll be back.

David, I like you not only as an actor, but as a person. I understand your depression over your break-up with your wife. I hope that you are strong enough to move on and succeed in your acting career. Good luck!

By Steve

Depression, I get. Drinking oneself into oblivion, I'll never understand that. Don't drink the poison if you don't want to destroy your family and/or kill yourself.

Hope he stays off the booze forever.

Who is this weirdo anyway? Oh he was in the "Scary movie" movies, wow major star. I guess he married Courtney Cox to make himself bigger than he really is.

I wish him all the worst.

30 days huh!? At 30 days w/o a drink, your head is just beginning to clear up, your body is feeling healthier than it has in a while, and you're not feeling the depressive effects of alcohol in your system. But, now you start to think about the things that haunt you each day that helped to trigger the self-medication in the first place. Those emotional feelings that affect you physically and mentally 24/7...It's called "white-knuckle" time. I just hope he is getting some long-term outpatient counseling. Not drinking is the easy part early on, it's the other stuff that'll kill ya.

Lovely, another alcholic or drug addicted actor driving around Hollywood. Another menace to the safety of the people who keep putting money into these moron's pockets. He sound as much of a low-life as Stern. God Bless American intellect. Please don't bring anymore kids into this world.
